No ShopRite Cake for Baby Hitler

2008_12_babyhi.jpgWhen you name your baby Hitler—or, in this case, Adolf Hitler Campbell—perhaps you are stacking the deck against him. A NJ family is upset that ShopRite refused to personalize a cake with "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler." The boy's father, Heath Campbell, a "Nazi fan" (his other kids are JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlyn Hinler Jeannie) and Holocaust denier who decorates his home with swastikas, told reporters yesterday, "There's a new president and he says it's time for a change. Well, then it's time for a change. They need to accept a name. A name's a name. The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did." ShopRite offered to write "Happy Birthday" with room for the Campbells to inscribe it themselves, but the outraged family took their business to Wal-Mart, which apparently supplied little Adolf's earlier cakes. For levity: Top 10 rejected names for Adolf Hitler Campbell ("9. Dahmer Amin Stalin Telemarketer Campbell").

    I feel really bad for all these kids, it's not their fault that their parents are out of their fu*king minds!

    I belive in freedom of speech and the right to name your kid whatever you want (Tu Morrow, Coco, etc.) But to name your kids names that will not only get them beat up, but ashamed of themselves for the rest of their lives....you really SUCK as a parent and should not be allowed to have kids....

    God help you both because a lot of people on this site would love to kick your as*......

    Wasn't this an episode of OZ?

    Interesting that his real first name is Isidore on the kid's birth certificate. I guess he couldn't take the ribbing all his nazi friends gave him for having a jewish sounding name.

    Baby hitler?

    I think somebody put too much bait in the dipshit trap and we caught us a huge one. If anyone's looking for holiday fundraiser ideas, I would pay 500-1200 dollars for the opportunity to punch Heath Campbell in the mouth.

    Karl Kyle Kevin Campbell. Which will be tastefully tattooed on his forehead. Actually only his initials will be tattooed because the space will not allow the full name to be properly presented in one line. The tattoo will be done at the local WalMart in Pennsylvania in keeping with a family tradition. Either that or his father will do it himself to save a few bucks and use india ink and an old pen knife he used to carve Adolf's third birthday cake.

    [82] You haven't seen anything yet. Those kids are going to be thoroughly indoctrinated in what those parents believe, like the Nazis being great people, white supremacy and all that. It's surprising that the kids have so much hair, though. Going to have to shave them if the dad wants them to be skinheads. I'm waiting for the next kid, Vizier Mengele Campbell.

  • Snoopy

    I ran into his brother the other week and video taped him.

    Dad's a coward for not changing his last name to Feinberg.

  • 7train

    What a moron!!!!!!If you like ridiculous names, why don't you go ahead and change YOUR OWN??? Why do that to a child?

  • Snoopy

    I can't wait till the little guy shows up at his first "t" ball game and this guy named Lashaun Williams is pitching.

    I know there aren't any pitchers in "t" ball but the position is covered.

    Where in the world is Child Welfare in NJ?

  • S.D.

    Where in the world is BabyHitler??

  • runs with scissors

    i'm not at all fooled by this david duke-like publicity stunt. the parents are racists and they are flaunting it. i mean for f---sake, their daughter's name is what?!

    little adolf is SO going to have the crap beat out of him everyday when he gets to be school age - - not only will he learn to hate his parents' idiocy, but he will learn to hate most people too.

    maybe this is a case for state authorities to look into. i mean shouldn't we be looking out for this innocent child's welfare?

    Take a cue from the original Hitler: send the kid's cake into the oven and let it burn.

    Something tells me that he will not be sending the kids to a Yeshiva. It's not a matter of money. It's more basic than that.

  • zodak

    i already made my hitler joke, so i have to say that as someone who voted for a man named hussein, the kid's name is not a big deal.

    I'm sending this story to Merriam-Webster in case they are looking for a new definition for f--ktard.
